$64.50
42% Chardonnay, 36% Pinot Noir and 22% Meunier
TASTING NOTES | Powerful, mineral with deeper and broader texture and amazing long finish. Brioche,
hints of honey and red apple along with mouthwatering acidity and rich citrus.
WINEMAKER NOTES | These vineyards have a pronounced northern character and the estate’s land is the
source of our quality wines. The estate, which originally comprised 100 hectares
acquired in 1850, now extends over 240 hectares—were carefully chosen and acquired in the best
terroirs of Champagne, in the Grands and Premiers Crus of the Montagne de Reims, the Côte des Blancs,
and the Vallée de la Marne. The men and women of Louis Roederer have a profound attachment to the
vineyards—this is what distinguishes our House from all the others. All the wine growers are perfectly
acquainted with their parcels and even each vine, which they tend year after year. This creates a unique
link between the vines and the men and women who devote all their time and energy to them.
FOOD PAIRINGS | Caviar, truffle, fried chicken, oysters
FEATURES | The wine is composed of 56% of 2017, with 34% coming from a solera-like perpetual reserve
that is even parts of the five previous vintages: 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016
